2002 Masters

Tiger Woods won the 2002 Masters tournament for his third Green Jacket. It was the 66th time The Masters was played.

Winner: Tiger Woods, 276

Where it was played: Augusta National Golf Club, Augusta, Georgia

Tournament dates: April 11-14, 2002

Leader after first round: Davis Love III, 67

Leader after second round: Vijay Singh, 135

Leader after third round: Retief Goosen and Tiger Woods, 205

Notable Notes: Tiger Woods became a 3-time Masters champion here, and won it for the second consecutive year. That made Tiger the third golfer to win back-to-back Masters (Jack Nicklaus, 1965-66; Nick Faldo, 1989-90).

Woods was tied for seventh after the first round, tied for fourth after the second, and tied for the lead following the third. He shot 71 in the final round, but only one golfer in the field shot in the 60s so Tiger had a comfortable run to the championship.
